I also use the European plug - just one warning. Make sure the equipment you are plugging in is dual voltage. Otherwise ----Poof! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petefoss Posted March 2, 2019 #27 Share Posted March 2, 2019 (edited) That's a great idea! I can carry my 220V adaptor since laptop, phone, CPAP, etc. are ALL dual voltage! FYI most laptops have a three prong plug but they don't need the ground. I have used a cord with the ground stud popped out in Europe many times.

I also purchased a 22v adapter that has the US 3 prong plug configuration on it. Works perfect on all my dual current electronics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hershy Posted March 2, 2019 #29 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Regards from burning (literally) hot Australia. No need for any high tech gizmos. I cruise every year and I take the following: TWO adapters with USB charge ports so both my wife and I can use the US style power points at the same time and charge our mobiles and tablets. TWO double adaptors. I use a CPAP machine but as I cannot bring my own extension cord, I ask guest services to provide me with one. That way I can use 4 appliances at night - the above plus a charger for rechargeable batteries for the cameras. I always take a USB stick pre-loaded with movies to plug into the TV but I have never been able to use them as the TVs on board have this USB playback facility de-activated.
